Contributing to a Members

Bug Reports & Feature Requests

The Members team heavily uses (and loves!) GitHub for all of our software management. We use GitHub issues exclusively to track all bugs and features.

  • Open an issue here on GitHub. If you can, please provide a fix and create a pull request (PR) instead; this will automatically create an issue for you.
  • Report security issues only to support@dachcom.ch
  • Please be patient as not all items will be tested immediately - remember, Members is open source and free of charge.
  • Occasionally we'll close issues if they appear stale or are too vague - please don't take this personally! Please feel free to re-open issues we've closed if there's something we've missed and they still need to be addressed.

Contributing Pull Requests

PR's are even better than issues. We gladly accept community pull requests. There are a few necessary steps before we can accept a pull request:

  • Open an issue describing the problem that you are looking to solve in your PR (if one is not already open), and your approach to solving it (no necessary for bug fixes - only feature contributions).
  • Fork us! Code! Follow the coding standards PSR-1, PSR-2 and PSR-4.
  • Send a pull request from your fork’s branch to our master branch.
